Where should I start? 馃 馃 馃
To be sincere, I do not know where to start but I have to start from somewhere.
I will like to appreciate #dreemscapers for putting up with me for almost two weeks now. Gradually, I am getting back into the game even though it has not been like before.
On that note, I will like to thank @samsmith1971 because you would not have been reading this post if not for her explanation. I mean she literally helped everyone in the teem to fully understand what the #dreemportchallenge is and how we can navigate the potential writer's block that is hitting almost all of us.
Long story short, let me brief you on my ideal way of solving the puzzle before us.
Remember, it's a treasure hunt and we have only $100 to spend. No credit. 馃槀馃檮馃檮
The $100 will be shared as follows:
Do you want to give the reward to just 3 persons?
Noooooooo. Each of the token will be further spitted into about 100digs.
How do you plan to achieve that?
Let me start with the $40 worth of Hive.
There will be what I called the "The Golden Dig" which will contain $5 of Hive.
Apart from that, we will have the regular digs which will be as follows:
Apart from the golden dig, there will be 40 digs with value from $0.5 to $2
Now, let's proceed to $30 worth of HBD. This will follow similar process with the Hive digs but it will be with a little difference.
This will give additional 25 digs but this time around, they will contain HBD.
Before we proceed, if you calculate the HBD value, it is not up to $30 yet.
Yeah, I know. The remaining $5 will be another golden dig.
Onto the last part, the $30 worth of Dreem token.
Just like before, we will have $5 golden dig.
This is what I have been thinking since and just when I thought I've cracked it, I realized there is a mistake in my calculationss. 馃槶馃槶馃槶
I feel like crying but that won't happen today rather I will input the correct figure into the existing formula.
That's the beauty of mathematics. 馃槏馃槏馃槏
40 digs with Hive, 25 digs with HBD, 25 digs with dreem and the 3 golden digs will give a total of 93 digs with value.
To make it a treasure hunt as the name implies, there will be a total of 400 digs. This gives a 23.25% chance of winning something. I think that's fair enough. 馃馃馃
To better understand it, let's see the breakdown of the chances.
There will be 0.75% chance of wining one of the golden digs, 3.75% of winning a dig with $2 worth of Hive, HBD or Dreem,
8.75% chance of wining a dig with $1 value and 10% chance of wining a dig with $0.5. I think this is fair enough. 馃馃馃
On to the last part.
Remember I said there will be 400 digs in total. For inclusivity, I will be suggest the following
This can be given to those that joined early. Particularly those that are on the roll call when the treasure hunt is about to start.
Following this will make it worth it joining the hunt early. You are sure there will be a dig for you if you show up with your shovel early enough. 馃憣馃憣馃憣
I hope you know we are all newbies 馃槀馃槀馃槀 because there is always something new to learn about Hive every single day. Probably, we are just higher newbie as @sperosamuel15 called us.
This particular digs is only for the newbie that will be joining the treasure hunts after being dragged by the older newbies.
What prompted this?
The newly joined newbies will not have enough points or should I say they did not stand equal chance with every other racers so I thought it will be a nice idea to give them a way to level up and a reward for showing up.
This will be strictly for racers and I will suggest it is based on the total number of points.
(Personal point acquired / Cummulative point of all racers) * 300 digs
Doing it this way will definitely give higher digs to those with higher points but I believe they've worked for it.
When I said this is a game of number. I hope I could say that again. 馃ぃ馃ぃ馃ぃ
And to say, I have only designed a reward system without an implementation strategy is more hilarious. 馃ぃ馃ぃ馃槀
Anyway, don't forget to show up with your shovel for the treasure hunt.
